2019 San Francisco Design Week
Designers of all disciplines are united by the drive to solve problems, advance aesthetics, and re-think the future. The increasing global collaboration among visual designers, industrial designers, strategists, writers, photographers, videographers, illustrators, and artists has created a community of purpose in today’s complex world.
2019 San Francisco Design Week
June 20-28, 2019
Cost: There are events that are free, but some may have admission fees.The 2019 theme of CommUNITY honors the design discipline’s global unity, which will be celebrated at the opening night party on June 20, 2019 when leading San Francisco and acclaimed international designers showcase original artifacts they have produced especially for the event—posters, typeface, product, sculpture, motion graphic or artwork–– a response to the concept of “communicating unity.”
In the last century, we’ve learned a lot about the death and life of great cities. We have tomes, movements, and a shared language around building these great cities. But little of this knowledge is reflected in the products and tools urban planners use to envision and create them. Instead, many of our cities’ master plans today are dreamed up on paper maps, built in excel, and possibly sit in binders on planners’ bookshelves.
